Your enduring commitment to spreading the word of God for $$$$
Barry Duke at the Freethinker tells us that Donnie sent a mash note to a risible prosperity gospel preacher a few months ago.
[Kenneth] Copeland revealed on Facebook at the end of December 2017 that he received a letter from the deranged Trump in August. Trump wrote:
Melania and I send our warmest wishes as you celebrate 50 years of ministry. For half a century, you have devoted your life to faith and humanity. Your enduring commitment to spreading the word of God has influenced the lives of people across the United States and around the world.
We hope your heart is filled with joy, knowing your efforts to spread a message of hope are an inspiration to people who seek the love and mercy of the Lord. Congratulations on this remarkable achievement.
Copeland, who long drawn criticism for his teachings that God wants Christians to be rich, was among a group of religious leaders who prayed over Trump in 2015 prior to his election.
Yeah Trump didn’t write that, and he didn’t dictate it either. He dictated the thing about Bannon losing his job and also his mind; he didn’t write that tripe about the luv and mursee of the lord.
Copeland and his wife were also among those who agreed to be on Trump’s Evangelical Advisory Board, which includes some of the most egregious bigots in America, such as radio host and psychologist Dr James Dobson; Jerry Falwell, President of the Liberty University; and Paula White of the New Destiny Christian Center (who chairs the advisory board and is stated to be Trump’s closest religious advisor).
So they’re cool with the pussygrabber? Interesting.
I wrote about Trump & Xmas for the Freeth last week.
But wait. There’s more!
It reminds me of that immortal line from the Welsh poet Idris Rees in The Bells of Rhymney
‘Even God is uneasy…’
And with good reason:
